The landlord of The Maltings, Shaun Collinge, shared one of the nicest things he has heard in these 31 years of thriving business. Someone told him that they feel good that they can come here and unwind on a Saturday night without having to worry about their safety. 

He says that it is one of the most flattering things someone has said to him about the strictest pub. He mentioned that this is what they have always wished to achieve. 

While talking to the Guardian, he mentioned that things have changed a lot in the post-pandemic world. According to him, people do not have the same manners, patience, and respect. Applying the rules has become harder and harder with each passing day. (As per TimeOut)
